So many get caught with these nasties, they forget to use Alt+F4 or task manager to kill the process and find themselves infected. With so many variants there is no one easy solution, but many fall into the same category as they are derivatives of another rogue, but the malware creators are finding many more ways to infect users so the first line of defense is educating users on preventive apps and safe surfing :)<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('12','Colin'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('12','Colin','Good post :)\r\n\r\nSadly these damn things are cropping up everywhere and use fast flux techniques as the domains are constantly changing. \r\n\r\nSo many get caught with these nasties, they forget to use Alt+F4 or task manager to kill the process and find themselves infected. \r\n\r\nWith so many variants there is no one easy solution, but many fall into the same category as they are derivatives of another rogue, but the malware creators are finding many more ways to infect users so the first line of defense is educating users on preventive apps and safe surfing :)'); return false;">Quote</a></div> Good post :)
